Connecting the optional 2U SAS expansion enclosures to the 2145-SV1

After you install the SAS expansion enclosures into the rack, you must connect them to each 2145-SV1
node in the IO group that will use them.
About this task
This task applies if you are installing a expansion enclosure. Each pair of nodes in the system can manage
up to 20 expansion enclosures.
Note: When you insert SAS cables, ensure that the connector is oriented correctly.
• When you connect an expansion enclosure, the blue pull tab must be below the cable (
on page 37).
• When you connect a 2145-SV1, the blue pull tab must be above the connector (
37).
